Current state list

Here is the list of states and where they are in the process of adopting the 'Nurse Licensure Compact' as of right now. This list is by no means authoritative. It is what I was able to develop over just a short time searching the web. I hope some of you out there will be able to expand on it.

Arizona

Alabama

Alaska

Arkansas

California

Colorado

Connecticut

Delaware

Florida

Georgia

Hawaii

Idaho

Illinois

Indiana

Iowa

As you can see, there are many states who have already adopted the compact, but only two that I could find currently in the process of adopting it. Let's increase both those numbers.

  1. I am a student currently trying to get my RN in NC. We have a national test the fact that the license is not national seems ridiculous to me. I believe all state who have not adopted this yet are either corrupt or asleep at the wheel.
